I know this might appear a daft post............but could anyone possibly inform as to the quality required for the various visa documents. Is it better to go with a colour copy of the passport for example or will b&w suffice? Also, can your application be returned if the copy is of poor quality.

Thanks

In all cases I have ever heard of black and white is fine. To my knowledge nobody has been rejected for not sending in color copies.

We sent for the I-129F and submitted for the AOS only black and white copies of all documents and passports (both the USC and foreign love interest). VSC and Montreal did not have a problem with that nor did NYC USCIS. The only color copies we provided were color printouts of various sundry photographs which we printed from our color laserjet printer.

As for quality, that is very important, I've found. If you are making copies of any document, be sure that any and all notations, markings, seals, etc. are as clearly visible as possible and readable (if readable on the original). My foreign report of birth aboard issued in 1948 had various notations on it which were not clearly readable on the original but as they pertained mostly to my dad's military status and were handwritten by his CO it did not present a problem with acceptance by any of the agencies and my right to US citizen was not questioned.
